I suggest a clean install and scheduling a backup with titnaum on a clean install. That way if he scheduls everynight like I do and suffered from data corruption he can restore data from the backup the night before.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, that'd certainly work too :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] blackdragon79:
This rom is sweet
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Thanks for your support! Glad you like the rom :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] husher:
hmm, it seems like after flashing 1.0.1 my signal seems weaker. I was in roam the whole time so i restored back to 1.0.0 and my signal is back to normal. But it could be a fluke. I'll just re download the rom again. But is it required to flash the "fixes" if you're not experiencing the issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
If you don't have the issues, don't flash the fixes. Don't fix what isn't broken :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] freecharlesmanson:
I found that this rom caused extreme graphical issues.

Such as the fps going all over the place in benchmarks, even my live wallpapers looked choppy. I also had the same issues wth bonsai 3 so I went back. To a dk28 build and am running an eb13 kernel and modem and it actually scores higher in every bench
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I wouldn't base your rom choice off benchmarks ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] carnivalrejectq:
am i the only one thats having wifi issues ? Rom has been fine except for the fact that two days ago my wifi jus stopped responding . It connects and does all that is normal but pages wont load as if there is no connection.....confused about what happened
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Sounds like your wifi, not the rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
Did you pay your internet bill?

Seriously tho does your computer still load pages? does anything connected to your router load? You do know that connected to a router don't mean you have internet access
[Epic 4G Android Development] carnivalrejectq:
Yea the internet bill is paid man , lol.....my girls shift wifi works on that connection as well as my computer (wired) and my ps3. The epic connects to it as normal , just the browser doesent load pages. This has happened in the past and is usually corrected with a pull of the power cord but im thinking this time its the rom.....gonna reinstall and see i guess.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
I've had similar happen to me before after I set up QoS for my ps3
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tomassbender:
Just curious, but does data corruption arise from the nature of a ROM (the fact that I am not using something that is "stock")?

Just curious if this is something that comes with the ROMing territory, or if it was just a coincidence that I never had data corruption issues the first 6 months owning the phone and it just so happened to occur shortly after I flashed this rom?

Thanks for the backup advice, btw.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
EXT4 can cause data corruption, if not booted off correctly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
Its not ext4 doing this its the disabling of jouranling and improper shut down
[Epic 4G Android Development] tenaciousj:
Anyones texting stop working? Stock app and Handcent all function but won't send, stays stuck at the icon saying its trying to send. Does it on wifi and 3g.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Reboot. Sounds like you used level 2 ram clearing in the task killer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilxflip:
I've noticed this too. On DK28 I had a 4g connection in my room and now it doesn't connect to it. any fix?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Try this fix :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tomassbender:
Alrighty. Makes me wonder how it shut down in the first place. Stopped wireless tether, put it in my pocket, and when I took it out about 10 minutes later, I was at the Samsung boot up screen. My screen is locked with a 15 second time out, so I figured it would be rare to have it shut down from some button (touch) mashes.

My re-flashed ROM is functioning normally again (Swype and GoogleServices), so thats a plus. Off I go to re-customize Launcher Pro!
[Epic 4G Android Development] tenaciousj:
That was it, thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
Read back a couple post for my recommendation on data corruption
[Epic 4G Android Development] dzuchowski:
i would pull the power cord from your cable/dsl modem and from your router and unplug the cable or dsl wire and then while that cable is unpluged place the power cords pack in and turn them on and wait about 1 minute and then plug in the cable or dsl modem cable.
[Epic 4G Android Development] carnivalrejectq:
Actuly did that about 4 times between now and last n8ight and it just wouldn't work. However I just reinstalled the rom and now that connection is working so apparently it was something with the rom. No idea what.
[Epic 4G Android Development] big_bake:
Mine got hung up on obaining IP address after I flashed this ROM. Computer was still connected via wifi and working. Unplugged the router for 15 sec and all was well with the phone. Wifi is always strange at weird times. Guess it's the whole sending data through thin air thing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] husher:
naw... i just did a wipe again and it's still jumpy and the ui is lagging badly, can i have a link to version 1.0.0?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I wouldn't happen to have that handy unfortunately.
[Epic 4G Android Development] shahin26:
Thank you. Is it the same with bonsai Rom? is Bonsai4all companionable with cmw3 and ext4?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes, it is the same with them. It is the same with any smartphone, no matter what rom you have.
[Epic 4G Android Development] carnivalrejectq:
Ya normaly it helps but for some reason no amount of unplugs of the router/modem was helping. Hope this don't happen again in two days. Just wanna leave playin around with roms alone for a minute cuz this ones so good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] husher:
Now google framework keeps FC. i guess ill try clearing the data of it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kinglegz:
I installed the newest syndicate rom .now my gps isn't working correctly .can someone tell me if there a is a way I can fix it
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Working well for me, try reflashing or using GPS status to download assistance data.
[Epic 4G Android Development] burgerpimp07:
ROM is working flawlessly and couldn't be happier with it. All the old bugs and glitches have been ironed out.

Don't mean to sound unsatisfied, but what can we expect to see in a future release? (besides the fixed being baked into the ROM) Do you guys have any baking in the oven?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
We sure do :D New options for battery with my app integrated, and a really nice feature I think all of you will love ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] husher:
ok so i reflashed the rom (for the 5th time) and it was still dodgy i went into my running services and turned off everything running now it's running fine. i dunno what was running to slow the piss out of it but as long as if i dont reboot ill be good - _-
[Epic 4G Android Development] tizocalamilla:
Is there any known issues with battery percentage? I had 58% when I installed adfree and rebooted my device... after device booted it shows 12%... is anyone else experienceing this problem? ...any possible fixes?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
We can find out what's eating the CPU if you like? Do you have terminal emulator installed?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Wipe the battery stats from recovery. But yes, this is a known issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
What exactly constitutes an improper shutdown? Is auto shutoff upon dead battery improper?

Why is journaling disabled if it makes the phone volatile?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes it is ;) Anytime when you don't intentionally power off from the menu is improper.
[Epic 4G Android Development] husher:
nope. i dont even know what that is. is it something to do with airports? :B

EDIT:

I'll reboot and turn off one service at a time and see which one it is.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Well then I'm going back to stock. I always use a battery completely to get the most out of it. I'd rather lose some quadrant points than reflash my phone every couple days.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tragicallyhip:
First, it needs to be said for the thousandth time: THIS ROM IS INCREDIBLE, in terms of speed and sheer functionality!! Thanks so much to everyone who worked on letting us have such an enjoyable experince using this device!

I have to ask though, has a workaround or fix come up for the Google Voice Search not functioning? Each time I bring it up it asks for me to give it permission to acces my location, but whether I hit "Agree" or "Disagree" it just closes and then comes up again when I try to start the voice search again...

I'm sorry if it's been answered, but I'm stuck using my phone instead of a computer sized screen, so searching is a bit difficult
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol no, it's an app on the market :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Glad you like the rom! :) As for the search, use titanium backup to uninstall the current one. Go to the market, and search for google search. Install it. Then move it to system/app :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] husher:
well lemme first try some simple troubleshooting and just end one service at a time before I start learning how to use terminals

Google messaging service

process: com.google.process.gapps

this is it. i stopped this and now it's smooth as butter
[Epic 4G Android Development] big_bake:
First off, why can't you start recharging <3% or so. That nets you ~97% of battery use before you start recharging.

Second off, a proper shutdown would just be using the power button, selecting shutdown, then waiting for the haptic feedback at the end if the shutdown cycle. After that you are free to pull the battery or take the phone completely apart.

If you are paranoid about the life of your battery, you will most likely get a new device before you will need a new battery. Unless you keep your phones 2+ years, then you might have a reason. I have never replaced a Li-ion battery in my cell phones (which includes always charging overnight while I sleep).

Most of the time I still have plenty of power left at night when I'm ready to plug the phone in. I'm contemplating only charging every other day with this ROM. That may be a way for you to use your battery completely.
[Epic 4G Android Development] miltownsho:
Just switched to this rom from Quantum Rom and it's great so far.

Only question is does anyone know how to get my contact pictures to show up under messaging? It's driving me crazy!

They work fine if you look at the individual contacts.
[Epic 4G Android Development] big_bake:
Well first off are they gmail contact pics or facebook pics.

The other is did you install standard or fully loaded
[Epic 4G Android Development] xxmastermindxx:
Its been said quite a few times in the forums that repeatedly doing a complete disharge on these batteries is unhealthy and will shorten their life unnecessarily.
[Epic 4G Android Development] miltownsho:
Facebook and Standard

Do I need to get the loaded version? I remember I had to do some weird work around before.
[Epic 4G Android Development] big_bake:
I know when they released 1.0.1 the SNS was included in both versions. I have the fully loaded version myself.

What I did was add my fb account in settings>accounts and sync>then click add account. I picked the facebook icon from the top section. I synced my contacts here and everything showed up.

Next I signed into fb through the included fb app. I chose "don't sync" when the list of sync options appeared. If you haven't done this I would try syncing from the app itself.

If I look in settings>accounts and sync I show two fb accounts with matching emails. Only slight differences in the icons. Hope something I outlined will help you get your pics working in messaging (it didn't work for me on stock EB13, only once I flashed this ROM).
[Epic 4G Android Development] richse:
If you run the phone til auto shutdown there is no reason you will need to reflash. The only time you are going to have corruption is for a battery pull. The auto shutdown, which happens on every rom including stock, does a proper full shutdown and will not corrupt the rom. I have run mine down to 0 multiple times while calibrating battery and can assure you it does the proper shutdown procedure.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tsumi83:
it looks like the new version fixes #1; any luck with #2?

I ran the 1.0 for a while but those two issues (and wifi tether murdering my phone) just forced me back to di18
[Epic 4G Android Development] tragicallyhip:
Thank you very much for the quick reply! Unfortunately, it didn't work :( I had tried that (but not moving them to the system folder - duh on my part!), but it still just keeps asking for permission to access my location.

Is there anything else I could try, short of reflashing? Not that huge a deal, but of course I would rather not!

Im looking for a AOSP Lockscreen and gingerbread keyboard has there been any update with this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tragicallyhip:
Check in the Epic Themes and Apps section - there are posts with AOSP lock screens that are Syndicate Rom Frozen compatible... haven't seen any 2.3 keyboards confirmed to work
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
in the market
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
Maybe some fail to realize that, a lockup from an app or just the rom period, can corrupt your data as it results in improper shutdown. So 'proper shutdown' is out the window. That's why we need journaling then we will be worry free.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
If jouranling was enabled are nandchips would.cause problems down the road. I suggest you follow my recommendations a couple pages back
[Epic 4G Android Development] chronostorm:
anyone else get force closes when trying to change their ringtone? Sorry I can't do a search right now since the search feature is broken on the site :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
You can do a search by hand or a google search.

Some people are having this problem and a work around was posted. I for one haven't had a problem
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
Oh yeah the auto titanium backup. Would be a good idea, thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] chronostorm:
I don't really know of a good way to search through 300+ pages by hand, and I'm not sure how to do a google search of this thread specifically either :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] tsumi83:
Just flashed 1.0.1 and am starting to get into the flow again; i remembered that I cannot find a single rom except di18 that has the "speak incoming caller id" feature.

I love it and was wondering if there was a way I could "add" it...
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
Just go back a couple pages.

To search a site using google "site=xda then what your searching for"
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
Yes in deed. This was posted when no journaling was introduced to xda

Why is it that any apps that require busybox to be installed say it isn't installed, but if you go to install busybox, it says that it is already installed? Kinda confusing to me
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Busybox is installed, as part of the kernel. It is also installed via its own 'install' command - it may, however, need even more symlinks in other places. For 1.0.1a, I'll look at linking it to /bin and /xbin as well as where it's stored, in /sbin.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dchawk81:
Because it's counterproductive to be that hawkish about the state of the battery. If it shuts down on me because I was busy doing something else, I'm screwed. That's what happened last time. I had to reflash and restore simply because I was doing something other than using my phone.

To me that's ridiculous.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tenaciousj:
Anyone having a issues with the screen not shutting down like it should when not used? Mine darkens up a little if not touched but wont shut off without actually hitting the button.

The screen stays in the current position of up and down and not the method of when you open the keyboard up. it only changes when you open the keyboard is this normal? and were is the 45 hours of battery use. i like to stream radio and tv shows and facebook and what not and fs as well. i expect to play movies for at least 20 hours in a row without having to charge the battery. perhaps i need the http://www.energizerpowerpacks.com/us/products/xp18000/
[Epic 4G Android Development] DrKaotica:
Not to patronizebut did you check settings > display > auto rotate? Otherwise if you are using a third party launcher (adw, launcherpro etc) you might want to dig around in those settings, I personally use adw launcher ex and there is a separate setting in the launcher for auto rotate

Like u I stream radio and video all day long at my desk job. But if u expect 20 hours of batt life while streaming video presumably over 4g, go get a blackberry cause its not happnin brewseph.

I did purchase a 3500mah battery from ebay for $15 shipped, which effectively doubles my heavy use battery life.

Or u could just plug it in. :)

Just my two cents

i just tried flashing one and nothing happened. which one is confirmed to work with syndicate?
[Epic 4G Android Development] mikenicee:
how do you change the transparency of the notification window? I want it opaque.

also has anyone had force close with dialvetica app?
[Epic 4G Android Development] snowmanwithahat:
Sync your accounts, then wipe data under the messaging app, as long as you used an sns facebook account it should populate
[Epic 4G Android Development] snowmanwithahat:
In the first post there is a "stock theme", that should undo the transparent notification bar, and give you back the stock battery icon, etc...
[Epic 4G Android Development] nikon120:
K0nane and theimpaler747 have both said in previous posts over & over again regarding themes:

[Not verbatim]

"If the theme does not explicitly say it is compatible with SFR 1.0.1, then don't touch it as it will cause issues."

Search the theme forum more and if you find nothing, then someone is probably working on getting one compatible.

I've been using the market version of the gb keyboard since1.0.1 came out with zero issues!

Couldn't u pull out the apk from a theme like the gingerbread theme and flash just the one apk responsible for the lockscreen? I forget the name, framework.apk or something like that
[Epic 4G Android Development] nikon120:
Ah good deal, you found a compatible version. :)

I had to re-read your post from the last page. I mistakenly read it as you wanted the full Gingerbread theme, rather than the keyboard itself.

It has been confirmed that downloading the market version of the GB keyboard works fine.

I had a problem with data corruption the first time I used this rom and had to reflash. After I reloaded I stopped using the reboot button. Things seem to be ok now I'm about 4 days in without problems. The reboot button is almost an instant shutdown and makes me wonder if it is the same as a battery pull. If you reboot with the Shut Down option, the phone takes a while and vibrates when its done. Then just turn it back on with the power button. Just an observation.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jasonsf:
I just installed this ROM for the first time. Coming from Supernova but he's taking a break and referred us here. I was having the FC on selecting ringtone issue. I had restored all my apps using Titanium. I also restored some of the system settings. I think that was my problem. I've wiped back to "factory" and have no problems selecting ringtones now. I'm going to try selectively restoring apps and see if I can get most of my stuff back without causing the FC issue to come back.

Excellent ROM. Now, to get my data back...
[Epic 4G Android Development] vide infra:
also, i have a folder on my sd card with extra ringtones/alarms/notifications from my evo. The phone finds the ringtones but not the alarm sounds i had in there

i have been usign this rom for a week w/o any issues but I dont get battery life any close to you guys. By the end of the day i am left with 20% or so and i would say i use it moderately. Can anyone recomend what I can do?

edit: also if i am at about 50% batt life and i reboot the phone, it shows it being a lot less..around 10-20%.
[Epic 4G Android Development] richse:
This rom shuts down properly when the battery runs out just like every other rom does so I'm not buying your story. There would be no corruption in the situation you described unless you battery pulled before it was finished turning off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Oxirane:
I'm helping my friend out with his Epic later (It's on DI18 right now) and think this is the ROM to install.

He rooted a while ago, but never did anything further. This is my thought process, I'd love if anyone can give me feedback on if it'll work...

Install CWM through ROM manager.

Install this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=963845 (DI13 -> EB13 update) through CWM.

Install Syndicate.

Will that work?

Thanks all!

It's not a story, it's my experience. If it was a fluke, fine, but if it happens again I'm going back to what doesn't corrupt.

I'd go ahead and flash the stock EB13 with the Samsung updater and then root using the one click method for Clockworkmod 3 and then install the rom from there.

It's fairly simple and worked great for me.

Sorry for all the questions, but Samsung updater? World that be Odin?
